Resumo: | Introduction: To be transsexual or transvestite is to be divergent from the gender norms established by society and to fight for the equality of your rights on a daily basis. After much struggle for equity, this population has access to the transsexual process in the Unified Health System today. However, little is discussed about the food and nutritional aspects present in the health of the trans. Objective: The purpose of this study was to know the sociodemographic profile, nutritional status and eating behavior of transsexual and transvestite people in an LGBT clinic in the city of Recife. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive and quantitative approach of an exploratory, cross-sectional, analytical-descriptive study, which has a mixed approach. Results: From a sample of 15 participants, a young profile was identified, with medium/high schooling and employed formally or informally, with less social vulnerability when compared to other studies. Regarding the nutritional situation, overweight and cardiovascular risk prevailed, as well as in the Brazilian population. Finally, the body satisfaction found was regular and there were few people with an indication of eating behavior disorder. The scientific literature points out the risks of this population for image and eating disorders, in addition to the need for further studies on this topic, especially in view of the metabolic changes generated by the transexualizing process through hormone therapy, for example. Conclusion: The work highlights the importance of clinical follow-up with a comprehensive view, including the nutritional aspect for transgender people, and the strengthening of the health care network to ensure comprehensive care. |

Após muita luta por equidade, essa população hoje tem acesso ao processo transexualizador no Sistema Único de Saúde. Contudo, pouco se discute sobre os aspectos alimentares e nutricionais presentes na saúde do(a) trans. Objetivo: A proposta deste trabalho foi conhecer o perfil sociodemográfico, o estado nutricional e o comportamento alimentar de pessoas transexuais e travestis de um ambulatório LGBT do município de Recife. Materiais e Métodos: Trata-se do recorte descritivo e quantitativo de um estudo exploratório, transversal, analitico-descritivo, de abordagem mista. Resultados: A partir de uma amostra de 15 participantes, identificou-se um perfil jovem, com escolaridade média/alta e empregados de maneira formal ou informal, com menor vulnerabilidade social quando comparado a outros estudos. Já em relação à situação nutricional, o excesso de peso e o risco cardiovascular prevaleceram, assim como na população brasileira. Por fim, a satisfação corporal encontrada foi regular e houve poucas pessoas com indicativo de distúrbio de comportamento alimentar. A literatura científica aponta os riscos dessa população para transtornos de imagem e alimentar, além da necessidade de mais estudos nesta temática, principalmente diante das mudanças metabólicas geradas pelo processo transexualizador através da hormonioterapia, por exemplo. Conclusão: O trabalho ressalta a importância do acompanhamento clínico com olhar integral incluindo o aspecto nutricional para as pessoas trans, e o fortalecimento da rede de atenção à saúde para assegurar a integralidade do cuidado.Universidade Municipal de São Caetano do Sul - USCS2021-01-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://seer.uscs.edu.br/index.php/revista_ciencias_saude/article/view/7336Journal of Health Care; Vol. 18 No. 66 (2020): Revista de Atenção à Saude - RASRevista de Atenção à Saúde; v. 18 n. 66 (2020): Revista de Atenção à Saude - RAS2359-4330reponame:Revista de Atenção à Saúdeinstname:Universidade Municipal de São Caetano do Sul (USCS)instacron:USCSporenghttp://seer.uscs.edu.br/index.php/revista_ciencias_saude/article/view/7336/3263http://seer.uscs.edu.br/index.php/revista_ciencias_saude/article/view/7336/3264Copyright (c) 2021 Juliana Gonçalves Machado, Juciany Medeiros Araújo, Carla Caroline Silva dos Santoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGonçalves Machado, JulianaMedeiros Araújo, JucianyCaroline Silva dos Santos, Carla 2021-01-27T21:31:46Zoai:ojs2.seer.uscs.edu.br:article/7336Revistahttps://seer.uscs.edu.br/index.php/revista_ciencias_saudePUBhttp://seer.uscs.edu.br/index.php/revista_ciencias_saude/oaieditoria.ras@online.uscs.edu.br || vera.basso@online.uscs.edu.br2359-43302359-4330opendoar:2021-01-27T21:31:46Revista de Atenção à Saúde - Universidade Municipal de São Caetano do Sul (USCS)false |
